I did wonder if I had done the right thing, when I saw my car in that condition. Good luck with the work. Hope it doesnt take as long as mine has/is lol Barry

So, is a CRT HD TV (100hz) better than LCD and Plasma? Saw one advertised for about 499 for a 32" slim TV. Barry

Hopefully be there in the Renault :) Barry

And let there be colour :) Barry.

Allan, looks superb. Barry

Easy! keep buying more stuff while the car is off the road. Just ordered a lovely set of 5 spoke deep dished 19" wheels and a full Stoptech big brake kit, front and rear.

The final prepwork was being done yesterday on the shell, hopefully the shell would of been painted today, then the build up starts and the doors and bonnet and hatch will be painted. Barry

Thanks, it all adds up, but just over 200 for Carpet, underlay and mats. Seats about 470, replacing tweed cant remember, Gators I think about 60 and wheel around 170. Wanted to keep it standard, but slightly different. Barry

Had some new carpet made up for mine, plus seats have been done in black and red leather plus all the tweed has been replaced with black leather. The car isnt complete yet, so no pics of the whole lot done, but heres whats to be put back in. Also black with red stitched steering wheel, gear stick and handbrake gators. Barry

Thats a lovely looking spoiler! :) Barry

Looking good Mark, Phil was working on your block this afternoon when I called in. Barry

Hi Dave, glad to see your still about and enjoying Z ownership again. Hopefully see you at Mascrat sometime. Barry

Good luck with the conversion, hoping mine will be done in the next few weeks! Barry

Has been a bit slow recently, but im hoping the finished item will be worth the wait, especially as the bodyshop guy has a good eye for detail. Might only be able to make the Sunday :( as im doing holiday cover that weekend, but might have to leave the machines to look after themselves just for the Sunday. Barry

Bit more progress :) the back end is now all primered. So, next week, hopefully all the glass will be removed and the whole car will get flatted. Then hopefully, not far off the painting then. Barry

Wasnt me. It may have been upto the Altrincham cruise, was told theres one every Thursday, nr Halfords just up the road from you. Barry

Lol, but the 1 inch high of dust doesnt show in the pic! Barry

Snap! just had the same delivered a few weeks ago. Still stored in the spare room at the moment. Barry

Lol Broke, think Im at the next level :) Iain, they are the Stillen ones. Barry

Lol, you never know! Whatever happens with the engine, it wont be this year, way too much spent on bodywork and suspension. Barry

Another big box of goodies arrived today, here's some pic's. Barry

It was leaking from where the support straps make contact under the tank. In the end I sourced a second hand tank from a jap car. Think new they were 300-500 pounds. Barry

Good question lol, it depends how much work is involved preparing the car. Theres a lot of fibreglass to prep and shape. I guess thats why its so hard for a bodyshop to give a figure out when its a big job. I have some pics of the progress on another thread I keep updating every week or so. Barry

Im using a guy in Astley, recommended by Phil at C and S Woods. They did my side skirts about 1 1/2 yrs ago and did a great job, looked like the side skirts were factory fitted when finished. He is fitting a Strosek wide bodykit and a full respray at the moment. Its Astley Car Care, and the guy there is Malc on 01942 873216 Barry

Least I came away from the rolling day with something! sun burn on my neck lol Barry
